Heavy rain battered against the old manor windows all night. The detective stepped inside and surveyed the bloody scene carefully. A shattered vase lay broken near the cold, dead body. The victim lay face down upon the Persian rug now. Blood pooled around his head and stained the fabric dark. I pulled my coat tight and looked for clues within. Every shadow seemed to whisper secrets from the recent murder. A torn letter rested near the victim's limp, cold hand. Heavy iron poker struck the owner with a fatal blow. I picked up the weapon and wiped the handle clean. The telephone rang loudly from upstairs, breaking the heavy silence. Who could be calling at this hour during the storm. I descended the stairs slowly, wondering if the killer waited. A shadow moved quickly past the doorway, vanishing into shadows. This case would keep my attention focused on the truth.
